General CommentI love this song so much. I think it's just describing what it is like for this kid to be growing up in this town and how much he loved life. "And then one day, the stars fell in" and they end up all dying in a car crash. Then we realize why a dream lies beneath the snow...

General Commentumm i dont think anybody necessarily died, the car (their freedom) just got wrecked... another episode in the perhaps innocent, immature minds of adolescents. I doubt he'd be speaking of a memory if he had died in a car wreck.
"and it was all and it was nothing at all" seems to emphasize how much the speaker misses those idyllic days of couple skates, etc but how in comparison it was unimportant in the grand scope of things... but that my opinion

General Commento yeah and i think the car wreck symbolizes the overall loss of freedom when they moved on into the real world and had to encounter the dailty problems of living in the adult world... done
